19 Apr 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Is a marriage between a Muslim and a non-Muslim valid? Mufti Abu Layth says he holds that a nikah between a Muslim and a non-Muslim would be valid, especially for converts whose spouses remain non-Muslim; both say quoting recorded minority views gets them accused of opening Pandora's box.

2 Apr 2017video Can I pray with my trousers below my ankles, or in tight jeans? Yes: trousers below the ankle or tight trousers do not affect the salah. Mufti Abu Layth does not consider trousers below the ankle forbidden, since the old ruling rested on arrogance.

20 Mar 2015video Do I have to wear my trousers above my ankles? No: for men, wearing the garment below the ankles is not haram unless it is done out of arrogance, in which case the hadith apply; otherwise it is at most makruh. In today's societies covering the ankles is normal and carries no arrogance, so insisting on it misses the purpose of the ruling.
